Oh Louise - I cannot come close to imagining what you are all going through, but just wanted to send and a big bunch of to help you fulfill your dream to get to WDW before Cam has his operation. Hoping beyond hope that whatever was causing the pain can be sorted out and that you will be able to fly. Thinking of you all xxx
Gosh i dont even know where to start to be honest !!
Sorry to everyone for not replying to this last night when we got in but I was just totaaly emotionally and physically drained I did read all your messages on my mobile whilst in waiting rooms at the hospital but fro some reason it wont let me post on my mobile
Anyway Cam is back at home and has decided he wants to go into school today although everyone at the school is in agreement he is craving normality and probably wont manage the full day but he has gone in for now anyway.
He is still saying his eye hurts and it is still swollen but all the investigations into why that is drew a blank yesterday so the plan is to see what happens from now till friday and if he is still in pain then they will open up a thetre and operate friday evening !! If by some small miracle the pain disappears we can carry on till 14th Dec.
I dont even know what i want anymore my head is mashed and im so tired i feel constantly sick and have the shakes - desperatly want this to be over !!
My ds 6 turns 7 next weds and is running round so excited and yet we dont even know what this week will bring let alone next he deserves a birthday as much as the next kid and im really hoping we get to give him one
The holiday is now just a nice idea that unless things change dramatically for the positive its just never going to happen so glad we didnt tell the kids !!

I am SO, SO desperately sorry Louise and will keep you and your brave, amazing son in my prayers. I wish I could say something comforting or helpful but there aren't any words, hun. We're here for you.
Hugs to you, Cam and the family,
Karen xxxxxxx
so sorry to hear that. Cam sounds an amazing boy and I hope he has a good day at school. Really hope that his pain goes away. I really don't know what else to say but just remember that evreyone on here is here for you.
Thinking of you all, Louise, I have kept looking for an update from you so thanks for letting us know when you are going through a very stressful time. Cam is doing a great job at showing that he wants everything to be going on normally, he is a little champ. All we can do is see what the next few days brings and if he needs to go in for the op earlier than expected hopefully that will stop the eye from hurting.
I am sending you lots and lots of and and we all join in with a big Continue as normally as you can, I know it must be hard, but try to stick to a routine. Come on here if you need to shout or talk, express worries there will always be someone about to listen. xxxxx
Thanks again guys x
Cam has done a whole day at school he phoned at lunchtime just for a bit of reassurance and then he went back to class everyone at the school has made such a fuss of him and im sure that has gone a long way to seeing him through the day.Im so proud of him
Now can I ask what you guys make of my so called best friend ive not got the head space to actually think this through rationally -
18 months ago her little boy was diagnosised with a rare blood disorder which meant that he needed to go through chemo and as i had been there with Cam i spent every possible minute with her at the hospital or on nights when she was at home would take her a bottle of wine and just take her mind off everything when her little man didnt make it i was the one holding her hand as she walked away from the hospital verbally she has been very thankful for this and has always said if ever you need me im her for you!! Imagine my shock when last week she said me an email to say im really sorry im going to be a rubbish friend i cant cope with this right now !!
I was mad really mad but she is still greiving for her little man who is also called Cam so i get it !! But then this week she has gone out of her way to make life difficult for me she has sent some really awful emails telling me to be grateful for what ive got and then she put on facebook that im making mountains out of molehills and everyone knows that ill children would be in hospital and not at home
Every single day her facebook status gets nastier and nastier and as you can imagine everyone down the school is loving it I have up to now stayed very silent and not responded to any of it but its really hurting me to think that instaed of supporting me she is going out of her way to be down right nasty and to be honest piling on so much pressure I really dont know what to do Have I been taken for an idiot for months or am i missing something and im the unreasonable one expecting her to support me ???
I think you should delete her as a friend from Facebook and try to put it out of your mind. She is taking the anger she feels on her own son's passing out on you which isn't right and probably won't stop until the grieving process is finished and you need to concentrate on Cam now. We are all here for you
